Argentina star Lionel Messi says he is enjoying himself again after a tough first season with Paris Saint-Germain.

Messi ended his 21-year stay at the Camp Nou when his contract expired in June 2020, with the Catalans unable to re-sign him due to their financial problems.

The 35-year-old went on to join PSG on a two-year deal but only managed to score 11 goals across all competitions in his debut campaign under manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Messi, however, has started the current campaign in fine form after registering six goals and eight assists in all competitions.

"I feel good, different from last year and I knew it was going to be like that. Last year, as I've already said, I had a bad time, I never finished finding myself but this year is different," Messi told TyC Sports.

"I've arrived with a different head, more accommodated to the club, to the dressing room, to the game, to my teammates. The truth is I feel very good and I'm enjoying myself again."

The seven-time Ballon d'Or winner carried that form on to the international scene as he bagged two goals and an assist as Argentina defeated Honduras 3-0 on Saturday.
